It can't be Monday again already...

I can't believe it's already Monday again. This weekend was so fun. I was able to get a lot finished. Mark left on Sat. afternoon for a "guy trip." He went fishing with some friends in Perryville, MO. Before he left we were able to run a few errands, the usual Sat. morning ones. As soon as he was out the door my wonderful paintbrush came out! I began painting our stairwell. I have wanted to for a while but it just hasn't been a priority. It's REALLY high so I had to use an extender for the roller. There was SO much trim to do also. Luckily I didn't have to trim it all because some day we will be changing our floor and the trim will be taken up in the process. I hate trim with a passion! We painted the bottom navy and the top part a light grey. I love it so much. I didn't know how much I would like the navy but we had to do a dark color on the bottom. The dogs seem to wipe so much dirt on the walls, with the navy it won't show up as well. I have a few touch ups to complete but I did get to hang some new items. I will try to upload a picture later. I made a quick run to one of my favorite stores...The Container Store!!! Love it! Mark returned home Sunday afernoon and we had some friends over for dinner. Joe and Leigh had picked some funrniture up from Ikea and delivered it to us. Check out their AMAZING buisness...Expedite STL. We put together some dressers for our master bedroom. They are amazing, we love it. It gives us so much more room and we have so much drawer space it's crazy! We watched the news at 10 pm and were alseep by 11. What a great weekend!
